Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You want division? Huh? Ok listen
My people making up 28% of these prisons
We make up 3% here in this population
While the other 97% under the ground missin'
Wanna talk about it? Let's talk about it
We got coppas killin mob and walking round and proud about it
Wonder we're loud about it? Been silenced too long
And I'm sick of being angry, my people sick of being too strong
I'm sick of my mob locked up, all over petty crimes
White man gets let off and the black fullas lose a life
You got our kids messed up, rippin' apart our family ties
Look at the statistics on abuse, their institutionalised
I'm sick of getting painted as a drunk
I rock up to ya' pubs and I don't even have a drink, but it's full of fuckin gubs
I’m sick of white tears claiming they don’t get no love
But when look at the history, they've always hated us
[Verse 2]
Yous created division! This is white man made
Truckers go into communities and make the black girls slaves,
Let's get 'em hooked on meth then the white man rapes
Then points the finger at the father so the black man's blamed
This the truth! They get fucked up, it even ain't mentioned
You bring that poison to the people NT intervention
Let's teach em a lesson, they'd be nothing without us
We stole inventions and claimed 'em, how dare first people go doubt us
They just created a stick, but you poised our waters
You went endangered our species, most my ancestors was slaughtered
Then they created the borders, while they wiped out our knowledge
Stole the language off my mothers tongue, hell fire upon us
I'm just keeping honest
I’m preparing to die
If that means my culture thrives without me alive
I’d do anything to have a little peace
But before I was born they already hated me
So who the fuck I gotta be?
I ain’t your puppet on a string!
God save the fuckin' Queen? Fuck your anthem, I don't sing
You must got to be thick if you think it's all a game
I got my old people here without a name up on their graves
Best believe it's 'bout to change
[Verse 3]
They had us all stuck in a box
So now we breaking out the barriers for the ones we have lost,
I'm coming for that stolen wealth, through my voice pay the cost
The tables have turned, so now you call me Mrs Boss
Mr boss man?! Think you can close my eyes?
I'll be that loud Blak bitch that you fuckin' despise
I'll be that angry black sister with that fire inside
That lights the fires that make sure that my young kids survive
You can call it what you want
I'ma call it how it is
The rest of the world can see that Australia's racist
My page is full of pages commenting without faces
And when they do show their faces they're usually shit faced
[Verse 4]
Have another one Shazzaaaa
Pour it up
Put that bottle to your head and you can go and get fucked
Think ya' better doesn't matter, you're the neighbourhood drunk
Who gets fucked up on VB and shames out your sons
Motherfucker!
[Verse 5]
65,000 fuckin' years, nah, we ain't done yet
I don't want your table, fuck your table and it's weak legs
Fuck your constitution you can keep it for them red necks
And every time you look at us I hope it makes you fuckers sweat
